"> As far as Yegge essays go, it was one of the more Molotov-esque. Unless you is trying to say that Yegge's essay is flamebait, you probably mean [Nabokov](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki...). :)"

sometimes when the VCs or stock market love you, it can make you slip away from sound business practice. I am someone who always advocates giving employees some space and enough fun (we all work better when we like our job), and for flat structures and openness. But some of the things at google seemed preposterous - very dotcom excess. Excess is frowned on at the moment.
- Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)
Hmmm. I once mocked the idea of Google selling any of its properties. Now it seems plausible. And maybe sensible too. Who knows...

Completely agree with you Chris.... However, at this point, I wonder what choice GOOG has. IMO, to get to the nirvana stage of having a smaller group of happy employees, GOOG will have to do lay-offs and I doubt they will do something like that.

Sometimes what the star engineers want most is more engineers. :-)
- Kevin Fox
The article is misleading. "He says the company is 'not going to give' an engineer 20 people to work with on certain experimental projects anymore." This has nothing to do with 20% projects. It just means that a project like Lively is not going to get an entire team working full-time on it.
- Andrew Bonventre
Begs the question[s] what is innovation? what is net neutrality? how does google view invention & patents? when will users get to share in the upside of how data mining & tracking is used to drive google profit-centers? what is the value &/or definition of "privacy" & "fair use"?
- Scott Moskowitz
+1 to Andrew. The WSJ clearly says "20 people" projects, which is completely different from 20% projects. This article confuses the two, in my opinion.
- Matt Cutts
@Jason You appear to be making the assumption that the majority of existing Google employees hold perks above all else as their primary reason for working there. Startups offer a certain dynamic, and a larger company offers another. Both can be rich with or completely devoid of passion and perks, but the two are not mutually exclusive.

"Based on my observations, I have theory that Google’s big problem is that the company hasn’t realized that it isn’t a startup anymore. This disconnect between the company’s status and it’s perception of itself manifests itself in a number of ways"
- Adewale Oshineye
If that's a trend, it's a 1% backwash from the trend going the other way. Of course the ex-MS Googlers tend to be grumpy about MS, and the ex-Google Microsofties tend to be grumpy about Google, by selection bias. There are a lot of fair complaints to make about Google, but the ones selected in this article seem kind of bizarre.
- ⓞnor
I agree that the data don't support Dare's position however I found Sergey Solyanik's blog to be highly educational on a variety of software engineering topics.
- Adewale Oshineye
This article that he links to, in particular, ( http://tinyurl.com/63jhzd ) isn't exactly the most insightful, especially given that the paragraph he dedicates to writing about the Google process (about 1/10th of his post) consists entirely of unsubstantiated "MS is better than Google at X" statements.
